Boiler Room (2000)
7/10
A great original story.
10 August 2000
Boiler Room is a nice refreshing change from the same old rekindled story. Seth (Ribisi), is a free spirited, self-employed young man whom just happens to run a illegal casino from his home; a very profitable one I might add. When he is visited by a friend that is a stock broker, he is talked into a career change. Ribisi is joined by an great cast including Vin Diesel (Chris), Tom Everett Scott (Michael), and Nia Long (Abby). The main reason I went to the theater to see this movie, was Ben Affleck. Well to my surprise, Affleck was just a minor part of the movie, all be it a GREAT part! Some of the funniest parts of this movie are when Chris, and Michael are talking smack to each other about their backgrounds. It is very funny stuff, and I know that Vin Diesel fans will enjoy this film. My opinion is that you head out to your local Hollywood Video and rent this one.
